Soil Conservation News
Dry Spell Turns Farmers'
Thoughts to Irrigation
Bv ROY R. BECK
Soil Conservation Service
Many Carteret County farmers
are seriously considering purcha>
ing and installing irrigation syj
tems on theirt farms after several
dry growing seasons have cut crop
yields.
These farmers realize that with
high per-acre fixed costs, a supple
mentary irrigation system insures
a good yield even in dry weather.
Roland Salter and Roy Keller of
Bettie have pumped water on their
truck crops almost continuously
this spring. During the past week,
they have been watering newly-set
sweet potatoes.
Graham Davis of Smyrna is hav
ing a drainage ditch cut around a
large, newly-cleared field on his
farm. Part of this field has a nice
stand of lespedeza growing on it.
Elmo Smith of Bogue Sound has
seeded crotolaria in all crops on
his farm when he laid them by, ex
cept an acre of peas. ( Crotolaria
has proven to be the best soil build
ing crop known for sandy soil*.
It is also reported by the experi
mental station to be extremely re
sistant to nematodes.
John W. Smith of Atlantic has
oats and lespedeza and silage corn
planted on his new ground fields
near Sea Level. This soil has a clay
foundation and muck topsoil. Mr.
Smith has limed and fertilized, ac
cording to soil sample recommen
dations.
Conservation farmers are in
creasing their acreage of small
grains each year for greater in
come, better soil building rotations,
and greater diversification.
The use of oats in tobacco rota
tions for disease control is becom
ing a common practice in Newport
township. Growing small grain has
several other beneficial effects on
a farmer's operation, as reported
by C. T. Garner.
These farmers are increasing
small grain yields each year by fol
lowing the recommendations of the
extension service and are making
small grain a profitable crop here
in Carteret County.
Health Officer Warns
Users of Power Mowers
The power lawn mower, the lat- !
est time-saver available to aid the .
home handy man, can be the ,
source of many serious accidents
if not properly used and main
tained, Dr. F. E. Hyde of the Car
teret County Health Department i
warned today.
The health officer pointed out
that the power lawn mower is the
fastest selling home appliance on
the market today and thousands
have been brought into North
Carolina's homes in the past few
months.
He called attention to the two
major types of power mowers and
pointed out the specific hazards
relating to the operation of each.
The real type mower, depepds
on a sharp cutting edge whereas
the rotary type depends on a
mulching action of the cutter bar
to trim the grass. The rotary type
mower is usually provided with
a guard, but due to its construction
a space must be provided between
the blade and the ground. This
necessary space makes it possible
for stones, sticks, and other debris
to be picked up and thrown out
with great force.
This clearance space also pro
vides an opportunity for the foot
or shoe to enter into the whirling
blades and a score of serious cuts
have been reported to the Acci
dent Prevention Section of the
State Board of Health.
The reel type mower operates
at a slower rate of speed and may
be equipped with a guard or
catcher to prevent the throwing
out of stones and sticks. The user
should be particularly careful to
avoid adjusting the blade while
the motor is running.
Other general rules, listed by
the health officer include:
1. When powered by an electric
ground wife firmly attached to the
motor always have a third, or
ground wire firmly attached to the
framework. In case a defect de
velops this ground wire will reduce
the electric shock hazard. This
machine should not be stored or
used under wet conditions.
2. When powered by a gasoline
motor, never make adjustments or
do other repair work unless the
ignition wire has been disconnect
ed. If one should spin a reel or
cutter bar while the engine is hot
there is a possibility of it starting
unless it has been properly deact
ivated.
3. Regardless of the type of
machine other precautions are
proper guards and covers on all
moving parts and do not allow
children Or other inexperienced
persons to tamper with or use the
machine.
Dalmation Defends Toy
It Steals from Hat Shop
San Diego. Calif. (AP)? Mabel
Whitsitt's hat shop was spic and
span and ready for the first cus
tomer. When the door was open
ed a big Dalmation dog slipped in
side, snatched a stuffed poodle
from the show window and then
made his getaway.
Startled clarks followed him for
half a block but quit the chase
when the Dalmation had placed the
puodle gently beside a tree and
turned to defend his fuzzy friend
against any attackers.
Highway Accident
Nutley, N. J. (AP) ? Peter
Scarpelli built a two-family house
here 10 years ago In an area that
has since become restricted to
single-family units. But he wasn't
affected until the Garden State
Parkway came along and forced
Scarpelli to move his house about
800 yards. Now the town lays his
house can no longer claim exemp
tion from the one-family rule.
Scarpelli hopes the courts will see

Soil Testing Is
Advised by Welch
The farmer who looks ahead gen
erally comes out best in the long
run, according to Charles W.
Welch, soil testing specialist, N. C.
Department of Agriculture. There
is a double advantage for farmers
to have their soil tested now for
Ladino-grass pastures. alfalfa,
small grains and other fall seeded
crops. Lime should be applied
ahead of land preparation for best
results, and an overload in the Soil
Testing Laboratory may cause de
lays later in the summer, says
Welch.
At the present time the Soil
Testing Division can give prompt
service, getting out reports in sev
en to 10 days after samples are re
ceived. Farmers who want a com
plete analysis and suggestions for
both liming and fertilization should
send their samples now. Later it
may be necessary to request that
farmers send their samples for lime
test only, since there Is a limit as
to the testing that can be done.
For -best results from soil tests
it is necessary to collect good samp
les, explains Welch. Information
regarding soil tests and instruc
tions for sampling can be obtained
from local agricultural agencies or
by writing the Soil Testing Devi
ston, State department of Agricul
ture, Raleigh.
